"Flavours of peaches, apple and vanilla cream-custard are presented through a satin-cream texture and contrasting acid line. Medium+ acid line adds vibrato and youthful, salivating the palate and revealing a light saline quality. Very fine tannins and a cashew-nut butter quality enhance the mouthfeel and complexity. Well made, youthful and ready to drink from 2024 through 2028" Cameron Douglas, Master Sommelier

The Boathouse Chardonnay like its namesake is a real crowd pleaser. Poised and elegant, showing aromas of ripe stonefruit and citrus with a mineral complexity. The palate has a fruit-forward expression softened by subtle oak and malolactic fermentation, balanced with juicy acidity on the finish.
